As expected, the petulant CRC Scammers now stand in the way of any alternative.

Poor losers.

Reading the comments under the sadly inaccurate, misinformed and misquoted article concerning the Bi-state Bridge Coalition (BBC) development shows the accuracy of my prior prognostications: the losers in the CRC Scam... besides the taxpayers they bent over by wasting $200 million on a half-stack of paper... will now condemn any effort to do anything else to resolve our cross-river transportation problems.

As expected, their arrogance and their fringe-left partisanship allows for no other possible effort save for the CRC Scam... as if no other option was or is available.

Part of the problem is based on the misinformation contained within the article: for example, the caption under the picture of Sen. Rivers and Rep. Pike is totally false:

State Rep. Liz Pike, R-Camas, and state Sen. Ann Rivers, R-La Center, are among Southwest Washington lawmakers who have invited their Oregon counterparts to form a new coalition to discuss an Interstate 5 bridge replacement project.

The coalition is being formed to find common ground on a wide variety of cross-river solutions. There's no emphasis on replacing the I-5 bridge save the bias of the reporter. To CRC Scammers, thus misinformed, they whine and snivel that their take on the rip off they were advocating was the ONLY take that could ever see the light of day.

It's not: far from it.

But as I've stated repeatedly, their only purpose in life, driven by their fringe-left hatred, will be to attack and attempt to delay/destroy any other possible course of action besides their hated CRC Scam.

They lie about "compromise," having offered none either during the CRC Scam's halcyon days of vaporizing our money and none now... their mission is to punish those who actually worked to represent the will of the people instead of the will of their downtown special interests who own them.

In punishing those they refer to as "them," they're punishing all of US.

But then, by supporting this rip off, they were going to punish "us" anyway, so I can see where it makes no difference in their view.

But their problem?

They lack the chops to stop it.

The people are watching. And when viable solutions are offered to these same people, the people will support them. And when the people support them?

They ARE going to happen.

I get the whines... the sniveling... the being left out. But they had their chance... and they blew it. So, it essentially means they can get on board with progress... or they can get run over by it.

Either way, it's going to happen because this time, when the people demand it... it's going to happen.

“Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' But conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but because conscience tells one it is right.”
